I have been wanting a camera bag that I could use when I'm on a shoot without carrying all of my equipment and lenses as well as something that didn't scream "camera bag"! I used a piece of vintage home dec fabric that I've had for awhile and was waiting for just the right project. The bag is piped on all of the seams with black and has side pockets on the outside side panels for a quick place to keep my lense covers when I'm shooting. It is heavily padded with high density foam. I'm quite pleased with the result. I can't wait to try it out on my next shoot.

This is the inside view of my camera bag that I put together over the holidays. The inside is nylon with a double layer of high density foam on the bottom and high density foan on all sides with velcro adjustable interior panels. There is room to hold my slr and an extra lense when I'm on a shoot plus extra room for additional lens filters or a notebook.

About Me

I studied fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. I have set up two blogs. One for my love of designing clothing and accessories and the other for my passion for quilting. I bring to both my years of work with textiles in surface design, couture sewing and always ask "what if" when starting a new project. If you see something that you would like to know more about just ask...I would be happy to answer question and post tutorials. My clothing is everything from couture to vintage to recycled and repurposed. My quilts range from tradition to art to modern. I don't limit my quilts to fabrics from the quilt shop and love to mix the new hot quilt fabrics with vintage and non traditional fabrics like rayons and silks. HOpe you enjoy the ride!
